Upgrading to 6.0 Nvidia question

[Vizion]

Hi

How do I check what drivers are currently loaded? Here is why I need to know 
in this specific instance.

I currently have 5.3 on a server that has all ports fully up to date that I am 
about to upgrade to freebsd 6.0. I gave one doubt/insecurity - I am uncertain 
whether nvidia driver is actually being loaded and whether i need to make any 
modifications prior to the upgrading.

The system has an nvidia on board but loader.conf is  blank. I do not know how 
to check what video drivers are currently loaded. I would be surprised if 
there is not a utility that can tell me but I cannot find out what it is! 
apropos drivers showed me lpinfo - but that only shows the drivers for 
printers...
